Abstract

Mucoceles of the paranasal sinuses are slowly growing, epithelium-lined cystic lesions with sterile content. When the mucocele content becomes infected with a bacterial super-infection, the lesion is defined as mucopyocele. Mucoceles or mucopyoceles are commonly located in the frontal and anterior ethmoidal sinuses and can manifest with ocular signs and symptoms, mostly proptosis. In this report, we demonstrate a case of bilateral ethmoidal mucopyocele in a 53-year-old female who presented with reduced vision,diplopia, and proptosis. Computed tomography (CT) scanning of the paranasal sinuses revealed cystic lesions filling the maxillary sinuses and anterior ethmoidal cells bilaterally and causing erosion in the walls of the sinuses. After marsupialization of the mucopyoceles was performed by endoscopic sinus surgery, the symptoms of the patient recovered rapidly.

Özet

Paranazal sinüs mukoselleri yavaş büyüyen, epitel ile çevrili, steril içerikli kistik lezyonlardır. Mukosel içeriği bakteriyel süper enfeksiyon ile enfekte olduğunda lezyon mukopiyosel olarak adlandırılır. Mukosel veya mukopiyoseller sıklıkla frontal ve ön etmoidal sinüslerde lokalize olurlar ve sıklıkla proptozis olmak üzere oküler bulgu ve semptomlarla ortaya çıkabilirler. Bu olgu sunumunda görme azlığı, diplopi, ve proptozis bulguları ile görülen 53 yaşında bilateral etmoidal mukopiyoselli bir kadın hasta sunulacaktır. Paranazal sinüs tomografisinde bilateral maksiller sinüsleri ve ön etmoidal hücreleri dolduran, sinüs duvarlarında erozyona neden olan kistik lezyonlar gözlenmiştir. Endoskopik sinüs cerrahisi ile yapılan mukopiyosel marsupializasyon cerrahisinden sonra hastanın semptomları hızla düzelmiştir.
